specifically, relates to improvements in my PatentNo."asoaooogrand on ,January 12,A 1943Jf It is4 an object of this invention to improve the; construction for connecting thefl'at@ rigid .mem-

ber with the pin shank.

Numerous improved forms for i constructingthe connection mentioned above are proposed.` `An important feature of the new constructionresides in the fact that the flat rigid member is connected With the pinshanklwithoutjthe use ofa i xnetalstaple` or similar fastening element; `Use is made of a support sheet andadhesive material.

rAnotherpbject of the invention isV the con` struction of an `article as menticned `Which is faturedand sold at a 10W cost.

The flat rigidmem- `ber- I2- isf in theY nature of a` pieceof cardboard lor sheet metal, `or other material.` The-support sheet I4 is inthe naturel of a piece of paper, or

The bond betweenthe adhesive I6 and the` pin shank I3 may be increased by roughening` or knurling the rear end of the pin shank I3.

In Figs. s and 7 a modified form of the 1a.!

States Letters Patent is:

vention has been disclosed in which the connected at rigid member 2|) and pin shank 2| ,are

joined in another Way. The rear endportion of the pin shank 2| is formed with a-head 22, either from the material of the pin shank or from foreign substances such as a bead of glass. The

pin shank 2| is forced through an edge and pin shank 2| sov that it adhesively engages andv holds the at rigid member 2|). One edge of the at rigid member 20 is formed with a notch 23 l into which the head 22 engages, f

In Figs. 8 andl 9 still another form of connect# ed at rigid member and pin shank is shown. In this form there is a flat rigid member 21| formed'- with a pair of openings 25, 26. portion of the pin shank 21. is laced through these openings 25 and 26, and then the parts are pressed together in a suitable die so that the rear end portion of the pin shank 2'| and the at rigid member 24 bent slightly relative to each other, locking each other in position. This may be clearly seen from an inspection of Fig. 9, More over, adhesive may be added between the contacting parts of the pin shank 21 andthe nat rigid member 24. f

In Figs. 10 to 12 still another form of the in- The rear endY of said pin shank and extending across and adhesively connected with one face of said hat rigid member, said support sheet being, exible.

3. A hat pin, and the like having a head which includes a ycloth casing and a flat rigid member Within and supporting said casing, a pin shank having its rear end portion extending into said casing and along one face of said rigid flat meinber, and \a support sheet-I extending across and adhesively connected with said rear end portion of said pin shank and extending across and adhesively connected with one face of said iiat rigid d memben said support sheet being fashioned to follow the contour of the rear end portion of the casing and along one face of said rigid flat mem- 1 ber, and a support sheet extending across and adhesively connected with saidl rear end portion of said pin shank and extending across and. ad-

hes'ivel'y connected With one face of said atrigid v memberfsaidk support sheetl being a paper sheet. 5. A hat pin, and the like having a head Which 'includes a cloth casing and a flat rigid member within ands'upporting saidcasing, a pin shank v having its rear end portion extending into said vention is disclosed in which the flat rigid member 28 is in the nature of d a piece of iiat rigid sheet material bent at the center 29y so as-to have adjacent layers 3|! and 3|. There is an opening 32 at the bent Aportion 29 through which the pin shank 33 passes. the layers 30 and 3| are provided with adhesive '34 Which adhesively connect the adjacent faces `of the layers, and connect the contacting portions ofthe layers with the rear end portion ofthe pin shank.
